No mate it must have been fiddled by Australia post, the only empties Howard has are beer bottles....:wink2: ( Mind you can't trust a Bombers supporter )..:rolleyes2:

A box is a box mate, it just depends what you do with it if you know what i mean...:wink2:{sm4}

A fine gift indeed! I note that it was "Handcrafted in China".

Perfect - you can keep a favourite tea-pot in it.

Regards - johnnybach:D
 
The funny side of this(well i thought so) is we all know how HUGE Howards collection is and he has every box,so he searched for ages for this box
got all excited he found it to post to me then forgets to put the figure in,i found it funny................^&grin

Wayne mate,
Sorry about that cobber. Found the figure quite easily in with the Figarti trains but took me two hours to find the bloody box. Then in a rush to get some repaints off to Obee in that night's mail grabbed the box and forgot the figure. You will have to put it down to old age creeping up on me.
Too much on my mind with organizing this trip to the Texas and London Shows.^&grin
Will post with the next batch of Obee repaints on better still will slip him into the next Train carriage deliver to you.
Cheers Howard

PS GO BOMBERS. THE PREMIERSHIP IS OURS.

Don't believe him Wayne. I've tried that trick with him before. Heck, maybe it was the same box ^&grin

I was the one who opened the box, as it came to me to pass onto Wayne, whith some repairs I was doing for Howard.

We only live 10 minutes apart, so its an easy visit, AND enjoy a beer :)

I was curious to see the figures, but when I found the box empty, I called Howard straight away to expain, and have a good chat with him, as it had been a while since we had talked.

I'm sure that finding the box was a who;e lot harder than finding the figure, after seeing the vast collection his has :)

I'm sure also that Wayne will let us all know when it finally arrives here, and feature him in one of his wonderful dioramas!
